MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Ford Mondeo (SL08 CXF) between July 2022 and July 2025.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (16 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Lighting (6 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Front Electrical wiring insulation so damaged or deteriorated it is likely to cause a short-circuit ABS Cable ”; “Nearside Front Floor excessively deteriorated Seat Mounting Area Corroded And Holed (6.2.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Service brake excessively fluctuating (1.2.1 (e))”.
